About this property
Pet friendly duplex apartment in downtown Santa Ynez!
Truly a unique getaway experience while staying in what is known as “A Sophisticated Cowboy Town” Santa Ynez. Here you will find the main street resembles an old movie set. Dotted with some of the valley’s best restaurants, charming shops, art, and a museum, you will have plenty to savor from your cozy hideout.
Breath in and relax as you enjoy this 2 bedroom, 1 bath home, with a lovely living space, fully equipped kitchen, and enclosed backyard that has outdoor seating and a BBQ. You can almost see the stagecoach passing under the mature oak trees that are nearby.
Steps Away Cottage has been fully renovated with newer flooring, fixtures, and amenities. Central Heat and A/C
Host pays the 12% TOT Tax, Not the guest!
Park the car and stay awhile while enjoying a walk to morning coffee and a stroll back, meandering through shops and country lanes. You could spend the entire time at your leisure as you experience the refuge of your stay. However, if you so desire, you are only moments away from all the wineries, European moments of Solvang, and wide-open spaces of the Santa Ynez Valley.
*Pet friendly! Pet fee-Per-pet
We do add a $25 per-pet-per night fee
We ask the following regarding pets:
- Dog must be crated when not with you
- Dog are not allowed on the furniture
- Please bag any dog waste and dispose of by placing in outdoor waste receptacle
- Please know that you are in the country with wildlife; don't leave your dog outside, unattended. Also, watch small dogs (hawks and owls see them as food). Finally, don’t leave the door open for your dog. If you do, you might find that a rodent has joined you inside the home.
